Hello, sorry to sound so stupid, but just got my F1 ecig today and have no idea how to fill these clearomizers. I have looked at youtube vids but there are so many different ones and none of them look like mine. They are enclosed in the pen-like e-cig with metal hole on one side and the plastic hole on the other. I tried filling one first with syringe from juice bottle into the metal end and then it all came leaking out, so wiped it off and tried the other end. DUH! its a 510 Ego pen type Riva if that helps. Thank you ever so much. really want to try this out properly now.:blush:

So did this get worked out? I wouldn't fill it in a horizontal position (like the pic shows), 45deg to keep juice out of the central tube. Short of that, I haven't seen an "inside the sleeve" clearo before.

Ah, the F1 looks like another name for the g-pen, your problem makes sense if that's the case.
Product Showcase - The G Pen - YouTube

It seems to not use glycerines but rather a wax/oil that heats up...am I listening to this properly? If so, the juice is leaking because they don't use regular juice. Did it come with 2 tubs o stuff, like found at grencoscience (The G-Pen).

That said, looks like it's a regular ego battery, should take a v3/ce4+ clearo, but I've not seen these yet f1/gpens before.

It appears to be a 510 from the link you shared. I'm afraid I haven't seen a cleromizer quite like that one. It is probably in your best interest to get better cartomizers or cleromizers though.

If someone has not mentioned, in most(all that i know of) cleromizers never put in juice in the "middle". That is the air hole. Typically there are two hole punches on the side of the cleromizer specifically sized for a syringe to put in the juice. The cleromizers should say how much they hold be it .8ml, 1ml, 1.8, and so on.

I want to share some pointers on what I think you could do but I am not sure about what kind of clero it is you have :( and I don't want to further any damage with bad advice.

If you can, e-mail the vender. This will be a good test of them and their knowledge on their products to a degree. They should be able to explain their product and use technical terms. If they don't understand when you ask "How many Ohms is the cleromizer?" there is your signal to run to a more seasoned vendor.

Don't be too hard on yourself and just learn from this.

That is a bottom coil 3ml ce3.

It has to be syringe filled, upside down. If you don't fill it upside down, it will leak. Here is a video that shows how to fill and clean it. This video is from gotvapes and he refers to as a Phoenix, but it is the same thing

Just my luck, the other cartomizer broke when I tried to pull the outer cover off! unbelievable. i will endevour to fix it, but else will have to order some new ones. Not my day is it?:(


I would order clearomizers V2's or Cartomizers DCHV 1.5 ohms those 2 carts worked great with the EGO W batt

The ego w pen cap style clearo has long wicks and is encapsulated in a metallic cover with a top coil system.

Yes it does have wicks, cause i broke one and the whole damn thing came out. Can't put it back in now, and the contacts even broke off, so will have to throw it away. Now having problems with it even working! Charged it for 8 hours as per instructions, and nothing happens. Tried every which way. :( Emailed the shop so waiting for a reply.

So you are saying now that the battery dosen't work either? If that's the case, I'd send the whole thing back for a refund! And get something that actually WORKS! Like a KGO! Or at the very least a Volt ecig look alike. These two are tried and true!

Elite Vaporworks KGO Starter Kit with Boge LR Cartomizers - KGO

Smokeless Image | Only The Best Electronic Cigarette | Volt - Basic Starter Kit - Starter Kits

The KGO kit would be best, but if you HAVE to have a cig look alike, I'd suggest the Volt.

Good luck! Hang in there! You'll find something that works and you'll be very very happy you hung in there!

I started on a very similar kit, didnt like the clearomisers tho, seemed inconsistant and leaky to me, altho,maybe just because i was totally new to it.
The visions i found easier and leak free. The flavour seemed to drop off quick in some.
Settled on boge cartomisers now, easy, leak free and better flavour and also cheaper for trying lots of different flavours. Bad point is lower capacity.
